GLP-1s — Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro — they are everywhere right now. Your group chat’s talking about them, they’re all over TikTok, and maybe even your doctor’s mentioned them. You’ve probably heard that they help with weight loss or that they ‘quiet food noise’ — but what’s really going on inside your body when you’re on these meds?
And more importantly what should we, as women, actually know when it comes to our hormones, metabolism, and long-term health? Because let’s be real our bodies are not one-size-fits-all, and wellness isn’t just about shrinking down a size.
So today, we’re getting into the real talk: what GLP-1s do, the benefits, the downsides, and how nutrition still plays a major role — whether you’re on them, thinking about them, or just trying to make sense of all the hype. Listen up!
The Flourish Heights Podcast was made for women, by women. To be empowered in health starts with a true connection with your body. Join Valerie Agyeman, Women’s Health Dietitian as she breaks through topics surrounding periods, women’s nutrition, body awareness, and self-care.
